History
Nishinoshō Station is a passenger stop on Nankai Electric Railway's Kada Line in the city of Wakayama, Wakayama Prefecture. The station opened on 1 December 1930 and sits 5.5 kilometres from the line's terminus at Kinokawa Station and 8.1 kilometres from Wakayamashi Station. It consists of a single side platform and is unattended; the station number is NK44-4. As a small commuter halt operated by a private railway, Nishinoshō has retained its compact, locally focused role through more than nine decades on the Kada Line, serving residents of the surrounding Wakayama neighbourhood without any major rebuilds recorded in available references.
